Grilled Fontina Salami And Roasted Pepper Sandwiches Recipes

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
• Mix the balsamic vinegar, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a large bowl. Whisking constantly, slowly drizzle in 2 tablespoons olive oil until emulsified. Add the red pepper, green pepper, serrano pepper, onion, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper and toss until well combined.
• Place the basket on a baking sheet and transfer the peppers and onions to the center, letting any extra marinade drip off. Place 3 links of sausage on either side of the veggies. Close and secure the basket.
• Place the grill basket on the grill and cook, flipping once, until the vegetables and sausages start to brown and caramelize and an instant read thermometer inserted into a sausage measures 160 degrees F, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix the remaining 3 tablespoons oil, remaining 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a small bowl. Open the hoagie rolls and brush the insides with the herb oil. Grill until toasted, about 1 minute.
• Remove to a platter and place 2 overlapping slices provolone on each roll (do not allow cheese to hang over the sides). Return the rolls to the grill, cover, and cook until the cheese is melted, about 1 minute. Remove to a platter.
• Remove the peppers and onions from the basket and slice thinly. Cut each link of sausage in half on a deep bias and place in a hoagie roll. Divide the peppers and onions among the rolls and spoon 2 tablespoons warm marinara on top. Serve the hoagies with the remaining marinara on the side for dipping.

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat. Lightly oil grate, and set 4 inches from the heat.
• Pierce the sausages in a few places with a fork, and set aside. Slice off the bottoms of the onion halves so they will sit flat on the grill. Brush the bell pepper and onion halves with 2 teaspoons of olive oil.
• Place the sausages, onions, and peppers on the preheated grill. Cook and turn the sausages until well browned and juices run clear. Cook vegetables until tender and peppers are slightly charred. Remove vegetables and sausages from the grill.
• Place the peppers in a paper bag, close, and cool slightly. Remove and discard the charred skin from the peppers; slice peppers into strips. Slice the onion halves. Place salt and pepper to taste, and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a bowl. Add the peppers and onions, and toss until evenly coated. To serve, place sausages in sandwich rolls, and top with the pepper and onion mixture.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Place tomatoes in a large baking dish and drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and sprinkle with the garlic, season with salt and pepper. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the tomatoes are soft.
• Heat the remaining olive oil in a medium stock pot over medium heat. Add the onions and carrots and cook until the onions are soft, about 5 minutes. Add the roasted tomatoes, garlic, and the juices that have accumulated. Add the stock and fresh thyme and cook for 20 minutes. Place the cream in a small saucepan over medium high heat and cook until reduced by half. Transfer the mixture to a blender and blend until smooth, strain into a clean saucepan over low heat, add the reduced cream, and cook for 5 minutes.
• For the Grilled Fontina-Mushroom Sandwich: Heat olive oil in a large saute pan, add the mushrooms, and cook until golden brown. Season with salt and pepper, and stir in the sage. Brush the bread on 1 side with the butter. Turn 4 of the slices over on a work surface. Divide the cheese among the slices then divide the mushrooms on top of the cheese. Cover with the remaining 4 slices of bread, butter-side up.
• Heat a frying pan over medium heat. Add the sandwiches and cook, turning once, until golden, about 2 minutes per side.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler.
• On a baking sheet toast both sides of bread about 3 inches from heat until surface is crisp and spread one side with mustard. Divide salami among toast and top with roasted peppers. Cover peppers with Fontina and broil sandwiches until cheese is melted, about 1 minute.
